Vibration Meter VM600 Mk2

The Vibrometer VM600Mk2 is an advanced vibration monitoring and protection system for complex and critical rotating machinery.

Its high channel density and fully configurable 19” card structure make it suitable for complex installations and large (critical) machinery.

​Benefits

Modular System Architecture

The efficient 19-inch modular card structure allows the creation of application-specific monitoring, protection or combination systems.

SIL-certified protection

The VM600Mk2 protection card is designed to meet the vibration protection requirements of SIL 2 certification,

making the system suitable for protecting the most critical rotating machinery.

Centralized architecture

Its centralized architecture allows for high channel density, making the VM600Mk2 excellent at

providing advanced vibration protection and monitoring for large (critical) machinery.

Description of the RLC16 Relay Card

The RLC16 relay card is designed for use in dcs-sis.com Meggitt Sensing Systems’ VM600 Series Vibrometer® product line for mechanical protection systems as well as condition and performance monitoring systems.

It is an optional card for use when the four relays on the IOC4T I/O card are insufficient for the application and additional relays are required.

The RLC16 is mounted on the rear of the VM600 (ABE04x) rack and connects directly to the rack backplane via a connector.

The RLC16 contains 16 relays with changeover contacts. Each relay is associated with 3 terminals on the screw terminal strip at the rear of the VM600 rack.

The relays are controlled by software-controlled open collector actuators.Jumpers on the RLC16 card allow selection of either Normal Energized (NE) or Normal De-energized (NDE) relays.
